Introduction

The "Conbrie Content Publishing, Payment and Refund Rules" (the "Rules") are rules that you (the "User") should understand and comply with, as set out by Wuxi Houlang Information Technology Co., Ltd. and its affiliates ("Conbrie" or "we"), regarding payment and collection activities you engage in on the Conbrie platform. Please read them carefully.

The foregoing agreements and Service Rules form a valid and inseparable part of these Rules and have the same legal effect. You should read, understand and accept them together.
